Move over Luigi, wonky politico is the newest game to hit your WII!

The University of Indiana at Bloomington is hosting a conference this summer on public policy and gaming.

Ludium II will bring together experts on virtual worlds from academia, industry, and government to play a live-action political game leading to an extremely serious, timely, and important contribution: a consensus Platform of 10 Statements answering the question “What policies should real world governments have with regards to synthetic worlds?” The hope is that this Platform will provide answers when legislatures and administrators wonder what to do in response to the critical public issues that will be raised by these unique social technologies.

Live action MMORPG!

I wonder if the virutal prostitute will be billed to a business expense?
